Worktop repair near Lydgate

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Worktop repair at your home in Lydgate

Burns from hot pans, chips on edges and scratches from knives make up most of our worktop work. All are repaired in place. Whether it’s knife marks and a damaged sink edge, we can help.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use a chopping board
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Lydgate: your questions answered

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you come to Lydgate?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Lydgate from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

In most cases. A photo lets us check what’s possible.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Lydgate. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Lydgate. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

For anyone letting property in or around Lydgate, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
